in a really small nutshell, if you just created a new kernel with 
ID "2.6.0-test4-bk2" or whatever, running "make modules_install"
should create a new directory

  /lib/modules/<above string>

once that's done, something like:

  # mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.0-test4-bk2.img 2.6.0-test4-bk2

will create your new file in /boot as above.  then add the
"initrd" string to /etc/grub.conf for that new kernel.
